Hosted by Eddie & Ariana — Superhosts

Hi! We're a young couple who love these mountains so much we had to have a cabin of our own here. We're opposites in almost everything — Eddie lives for the cold seasons, Ariana's all about summer — but we both love being outdoors, chasing beautiful views (especially sunrises), and sharing it all, four-legged son included.

Good to know

Everything you need before booking

How do I book directly, and what do I save?

Tap “Check availability” anywhere on this site to book securely at book.sunnysierracabin.com (Stripe checkout). Booking direct skips the 15–20% service fees Airbnb and Vrbo add — on a 3-night stay that's roughly $80–110 back in your pocket, same cabin, same dates.

What amenities are included?

Private 24/7 hot tub, outdoor stone fire pit, screened + open decks with rocking chairs, private balcony, fully equipped kitchen, charcoal grill, in-unit washer/dryer, fast 501 Mbps WiFi, 65" HDTV plus two 55" smart TVs, board games, baby gates, and free parking for 4–5 cars (plus room for a 25 ft RV).

Is the cabin pet-friendly?

Yes — dogs are welcome for a $150 pet fee per reservation (added at checkout). We're in bear country, so please keep pets leashed outdoors. Pets aren't allowed in the carpeted upstairs bedroom.

How far is the cabin from Dollywood and Gatlinburg?

About 8 miles (~20 minutes) to Dollywood, ~15 minutes to the Pigeon Forge Parkway and Anakeesta, and 20–30 minutes to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park entrances — close to everything, but tucked into a quiet, wooded hillside.

How does payment work when I book direct?

You pay a 50% deposit at booking through Stripe secure checkout, and the remaining balance is charged automatically to the same card before check-in — you'll get a receipt for each payment. No hidden fees, and you can cancel 15+ days before check-in for a full refund.

What are check-in and checkout like?

Self check-in with a smart lock, anytime 4–11 PM. Checkout is 10 AM (late checkout until 1 PM is available at booking for $100). Maximum 7 guests, no smoking ($500 fee), no parties. Exterior security cameras only.

What is the cancellation policy?

Full refund if you cancel 15+ days before check-in, 50% refund 8–14 days out, and non-refundable within 7 days. We recommend travel insurance for peace of mind.
